While Milwaukee Brewers SP Chris Narveson (finger) has sufficiently built up his pitch count during a minor-league rehab assignment, he has an 8.31 ERA and 1.692 WHIP in four starts for Triple-A Nashville. "If we're going to take him here, we need to see (better results)," manager Ron Roenicke said Tuesday, June 18.

Fantasy Tip: Roenicke added that he cannot guarantee Narveson a rotation spot, so those desperate for starting pitching in NL-only fantasy leagues will want to see how Narveson fares when he returns before using a roster spot on him.

Milwaukee Brewers SP Chris Narveson (finger) made the first of four scheduled minor league rehab starts Thursday, May 30, in Nashville as he continues on the road back to Milwaukee. Narveson threw two scoreless innings for the Sounds against the Iowa Cubs. He gave up one hit and struck out one, and he threw 22 pitches, 12 for strikes, on a night where his pitch count was expected to be capped at 30. His next outing will most likely come Tuesday, June 4, at Round Rock.

Milwaukee Brewers SP Chris Narveson (finger) will make his first minor-league rehab start Thursday, May 30, for Triple-A Nashville. It is very tentative, but Narveson is expected to need four rehab starts before the team considers activating him from the 15-day disabled list. That would allow him time to work back up to the 75-80 pitch mark.

Milwaukee Brewers SP Chris Narveson (finger) threw curveballs Friday, May 17, marking the first time he had done so since being placed on the disabled list. Manager Ron Roenicke said it was the final test for Narveson before he is allowed to pitch in a rehab game.
